SAFETY

EDUCATION

Lets wake up from the JAWS era and discover sharks as our friends. Sharks have been portrayed as bloodthirsty monsters, this is so far from the truth you are about to discover.

ECO SYSTEM

Our oceans are a delicate balance of eco systems that are threatened in today’s society. Sharks are the apex predators that maintain a balance in the oceans eco systems and are necessary for our oceans survival and ultimately mankind.

THEY SAY

What can I say... AMAZING adventure! We are local and have wanted to do this for a while... It was well worth it! Sometimes as locals we don't get around to enjoying all the unique experiences Hawaii has to offer.. We get carried away with work, school and life. This was a special mother, daughter and good friend trip we treated ourselves to for Christmas...I will highly recommend this to my family and friends... The crew were FANTASTIC and made sure our trip was something special to remember! The experience feels fully safe and exciting at the same time... Very professional and fun! Thank you and the Sharks for this incredible memory! We hope to come again soon! Mahalo

We had originally made our reservations for monday the 11th, with advance notice they told us the waters were unsafe and booked us for another day. We ended up going on the 13th, and it was AMAZING!! The 2 individuals we went out with were more than accommodating, knowledgable, safe and fun! They were both incredibly funny and caring, they took their job seriously, but also knew how to make it all light hearted.

I have went diving in many different places but this is one of those things that i will remember forever. Great adventure jumping into the floating cage as you watch the sharks circling the boat. the crew was very friendly and informative and did a great job making sure everyone was ready and knew what to expect. This boat is smaller and allowed for a more intimate setting while being safe and comfortable. I definitely recommend this to tour to anyone as it will be a high light of your Hawaiian vacation.

Booking is easy, but keep in mind, safety first and they will cancel if there are issues with the boat or the conditions are too rough. The first time I went we had to reschedule because the swells were just too big to be safe. When I was finally able to go, I had a blast, the crew was amazing.

I had a great time with these guys. The crew is laid back, funny, and does a good job of making you feel comfortable. If you’re an animal planet/discovery channel person, the educational stuff is very interesting too. As for the experience, its sublime. The water is amazingly clear; once your under, it’s surreal sight to see the sharks gracefully swimming around, making big effortless loops back around cage. I felt completely safe and had a great time.

Amazing experience. My wife and I had a wonderful time on our 2 hour outing with Shark Encounters. The crew was amazing, informative, local, beyond friendly and most of all fun. Will be going back with our kids in a few years. On the way back they circled around so we could see some dolphins. They went out of their way to ensure we all got a chance to see them.

Hawaii Shark Encounters was the best place to have my first shark dive experience. From the moment I booked to the moment we stepped off the boat and back on the dock, I was a happy girl. I’ll never forget my experience in the cage, and next time I visit Hawaii, I think I’ll go ahead and do this again, it was so much fun!

Second time diving with Hawaii Shark Encounters. Best cage diving my family has ever done, saw 5 or 6 galapagos sharks and a humpback whale on the way out, could hear it so clearly under water. The crew was very helpful and laid back, made the trip a lot of fun. Will definitely come back to Hawaii Shark Encounters every time I go to Oahu!

This was one of the coolest experience of my life! I used to be scared of sharks but not anymore! The captains were great!! I can’t wait to go again!
